I'm looking to change the speakers I currently have. They are these big monster things made by MTX. They take up to much space and really are not designed for this type of vehicle. Oh, these were in the car when I bought it. I'm thinking of using 6 1/2 speakers in the back and maybe a sub woofer. What do you have and what kind of set up. If you have pics, that would be great!

Chief, here is what I had put on another thread:

Not sure what the space difference is between the 78-82 series and my '73 but sounds/looks similar. I bought and installed a Sound Ordinance B-8pt powered subwoofer. It sits on the deck behind the seats and can fit under or over the t tops when they are stored. It is free standing but is heavy enough and comes with velcro type strips to keep in place on the carpet. The sound is awesome, more than enough bass for the small interior space of a Vette (when added to non amp mid and high range speakers). The above setup looks nice but the installation and cost is MUCH easier the way I went. Crutchfield includes the wiring kit and free shipping with the subwoofer purchase price of $199.00.

I will get some pic's ASAP but won't be until at least Monday. I saw your later post but couldn't open it?! Anyway, it may be the same box I've seen lately that installs over the battery and requires replacing your storage compartments?

Sorry it took so long but here is a pic of the speaker setup. The subwoofer is in the middle flanked by the t top covers.

Looks good buster! I made some corner boxes for mine. I went with JBL 6 1/2 in the corners. They sound good but I think I may need the sub woofer. I, at least, achieved my goal. I have more space in the rear. I'll post some pic's when I can.
